SDCC ’08: Robert Englund Cameo in ‘Elm Street’ Remake?

Some fun back-and-forth love at the San Diego Comic Con this weekend as A Nightmare on Elm Street remake news heated up. Platinum Dunes revealed to Bloody-Disgusting that they have yet to reach a deal with New Line Cinema to remake the film, but still, Englund says if they remake the film, he’d love to make an appearance. Dunes Producer Brad Fuller’s response? “We’d love to have him!” So even if there’s a new Freddy Krueger, maybe we’ll still get a sweet cameo from the legend himself. Wesley Strick was recently signed on to pen the remake, which centers on Krueger, a serial child killer murdered by angry parents, who returns with a burnt face and a razor glove to terrorize teens in their dreams.
